The most eurocized E30

[jgentile]

one more thing everyone seemed to forget, sunroof, taking out the sunroof and cassette would euro-size the car because all US e30s had sunroofs, why do i know this? i had to take out my sunroof for my e30 truck, also this is a good mod, that cassette is HEAVY

Um, I'm pretty sure there are E30's out there without a sunroof. In particular, I recall seeing a few 318is' without them.

i like shakey jake's sidemarkers. thats the one thing i never see anyone mod on their US cars.

Please explain???

On the fender.

For clarification these are indicators, and are found on most cars throughout the world in countries that require indicators on the sides of cars.

One thing I may add to the list is no OBC, but a clock instead even on late models.

Maybe I should get a reversed center console just to mess with people. :D

You're right, Morgan's 318is doesn't have a sunroof.

yes it was a rare option. NCm42is had a 318is without a sunroof. Weight reduction bitches.

:oops:
oh well at least it was rare, the only cars i ever found without sunroofs in the junkyards were euro, i took the header from one and the roof skin from the other

Just thought of one, the 'Decorative Rear Trim panel' or 'Heckblende' (In German) was an optional extra for the facelift models and replaced the normal black one that was fitted to all Euro/UK/Aussie cars. They are damn rare, even in Europe






The part has been NLA for about 10 years. I was lucky to find one on eBay.de unused. Im sure ill have a car with facelift lights one day (might even convert mine) so i grabbed it.

Here's a pic, manged to get my dog in it too :D

EDIT: No OBC neither a clock is much more eurostyle
and of course man. window handles

I have them on my eta. SMoked factory E36 side-repeaters. They went on the E30 ///M3. The actual regular E30 euro ones are kinda large and unwieldy, haha.

my description of the ideal 'euro' e30 would be -

exterior:
mtech II body kit
nice drop
16x9 rims with deep lip, tires that are too small thus giving the stretched sidewall look
black rear plate filler
tinted windows
smileys
blacked out kidneys

interior:
everything stock leather mtech II interior (sport seats)
except nice steering wheel (momo perhaps) and white face gauges.

so whoevers car comes close to that (and wide rims with stretched tire is probably the most 'euro' thing IMO)

Wow, AC, check panel but no clock or OBC! Actually thats kinda nice, it makes it easier to see all the buttons on your head unit. Personally, I'm a big fan of the analog clock, but its nice to know the outside temp.

It's an 318 M10 so the Check control is not stock ;)
